I came up with this recipe one summer afternoon, but knew I wanted to save it for late summer as we head towards Autumn. Pears & peaches are the perfect late summer fruit, in my opinion, as they're in-season & most succulent from August through October. And, hazelnuts, a symbol of fertility/luck/magic/wisdom, always remind me of witchy treats & Fall sweets. So, here it is, the Fall Fig Salad!
Ingredients
2-4 oz. prosciutto
6 figs, sliced
2 large sprigs fresh basil, chopped
3-5 oz. arugula
3 tbsp hazelnuts or pistachios
1 bag Parmesan crisps
1 pear or peach, sliced
2 tbsp olive oil
juice of half a squeezed lemon
1 tbsp "Everything" seasoning - I recommend Natural Grocers or Trader Joe's
a pinch or 2 of Celtic Sea Salt
optional: top with grated Parmesan, or extra nuts/figs
The Process
mix together your chopped basil & arugula with the olive oil & lemon juice
add the sea salt, sliced figs, hazelnuts/pistachios, & "Everything" seasoning into your bowl of greens, lemon juice, & olive oil - mix it all up
top your salad with a small handful of Parmesan crisps, 2-4 slices of prosciutto, & several slices of pears/peaches
This will feed about 2 -4 people. Enjoy & have a spooky Autumn!!
